humanity
Humanity begins at home.
Mother Day confession.
You are my hero, my inspiration. You brought me into this world and put my needs first, even when times were tough. I've been looking for a role model my whole life, but I never imagined it would be you — it took me so long to discover that!

Are Our Ancestors Inside Us?
My Uncle passed away a few weeks ago. And his wife, my Aunt, 3 months ago. My Aunt and I corresponded and shared an interest in genealogy. My generation wasn’t loaded with people. Nor the one before me. But the generations before that were massive. Lots of rellies.

"Get going!', yells Mother from the other room. I know that I am due at the clinic in half an hour, and I have the car keys in my hand. But, I cannot get past the inertia caused by my journaling. I am writing about stardust and celestial bodies.
Be Kind to People: Untangling Years of Narcissistic Violence and Abuse
It’s no secret that society is riddled with a plethora of problems, struggles, and injustices. No quick fix can solve everything, and one person can’t save everyone. I reckon that’s the appeal of Marvel movie superheroes- other than the distressing shock that comes with seeing an enormous green hulk smashing buildings all over the city (if Superman accidentally yet heroically smashes your car, who pays for the insurance??), superheroes serve as a release. Iron Man is another fantastical escape that can serve as a momentary hit of ecstasy- how amazing would it be if someone were to come into our lives and pull us out of the mud? Superheroes are everywhere, and they don’t just look like 6’3” white men in Supermen unitards. They look like presidents, religious saviors, significant others, etc. Like a god or goddess, we place figures on a pedestal to avoid facing the possibility that maybe there is no set plan, no universal decree, and no higher power present to dictate the direction of our journey. It’s sometimes scarier to admit to ourselves that we alone have complete and total freedom as to how to structure our life. The power of choice can conquer the power of freedom- with great power comes great responsibility, and is the majority of the planet mature enough to handle the blessing of responsibility?

What is my PURPOSE ?
Do you ever have a moment in life where you say to yourself what is my purpose here in this world? I hope its not just me! Sometimes in life you get struck by something that gets you going into that negative mindset. For instance there maybe something going on at my job and I get back home and instantly I’m thinking to myself is this really all I am meant to do for the rest of my life! Then it goes on and on from there. I can only work so many hours a day and they only give me so many hours a week that I am BARELY holding onto a thread. I got rent to pay, car payments, car insurance and anything extra that my kids may need. These mom hours are just not cutting it for me.I am going around in circles looking for something extra, a new job, more hours, thinking about becoming an entrepreneur, but nothing seems to be working in my favor, that does not mean I will give up, NEVER THAT! I know there is more to me than just working in the customer service field cashing people out at a register. Even though I always get these negative thoughts in my head, the best I can do is keep pushing forward to find what my drive is. It has not been easy lately, My partner has been laid off as I said before. He went from getting a good paying job to being let go to lack of jobs being open since the pandemic happened. Even though it has been helpful that he has been home to take care of our 6 month old in order for me to go work a 9-2pm shift, That soon will come to an end. Once he gets back to his job I would need to go back to working 5-10pm shift if I do not find an opening at a child care soon. I have been searching and searching but every child care has told me there is a waitlist for about 3-4 months later. It has not only been tough for me to cope with not making enough money but we both have different coping mechanism, he deals with his emotions differently than me. My new way to cope is just to write down my feelings, understand exactly why I am feeling the way I am and learn what I can do different to change my perspective in life. I think to myself everyday what can I do? What can I change to better my life for my kids. Do I go back to school? Do I find a different job who can offer me a 40 hour week?When I mention to some friends or family about going back to school they tell me, “oh going to school is a waste of time.”” It’s a waste of money, how are you going to manage taking care of kids, working, and going to school?” Then that’s when my mind starts to scramble all over again. Then I think about a different job like yes, they may offer me 40 hours a week, but is the hourly pay worth it. Decisions to make, sacrifices to make.I need to speed up my process. I can not be in a frozen stage in my life. I want my kids to do better than me, like any parent wants for their child. In order for that to happen I need to better myself to be able to guide them in their journey as they are growing up. Honestly I wish the fathers of my 2 oldest children would help me but they don’t. Instead of me being able to use any extra cash I make to take them out for ice cream, the aquarium, or anything fun to do as a child,I can only offer them to go to the park which they don’t mind at all, but as a parent you want your children to see new things and enjoy new things like a child should. They know mommy tries her best to get them whatever they need or want. They need new shoes or clothes okay I got it, They want a new toy okay i got it. Even if i can not get it for them right away they know I don’t break my promise can I will get it for them when i can. And for that I love my children for being so understanding at such young ages. They will always be grateful for anything they receive.These are the little things of why my brain starts to go into a negative space, and I start wondering what is my purpose? I know one day! I hope sooner than later I figure out what my purpose here in life is other than just being the best mom I can be for my children. Even though it is amazing being a mother and seeing your offsprings grow into their own little person is wonderful, But in life you should not being having to second guess yourself if what your doing in life is the correct thing. If what you are doing in life they best you can do. Like no there is always more than you can do in life, nobody should ever limit themselves EVER! I know deep down we all are here in this world for a reason and everyday we have to go out there do our best and find what it is that drives us to do what we really want to do!
Jeka oteroPublished 7 days ago in FamiliesSCHOOL IS TRYING TO KILL ME
SCHOOL RUINS YOU At the start of the term, I can admit I was breaking boundaries and disrupting class but I have been hiding my detentions and teacher commentaries from my parents but only because I am scared of disappointment because all I get from my Dad is “don't be like your sister/brother”,” please be a good kid don't turn out like them” or the worst one “why are my kids so disappointing and horrible, what have I raised “. Like I am right here, can't you see me trying to be my best self but I just have all this pressure because why raise kids if you're going to tell them to their faces they didn't turn out how you wanted. I just wanna live MY life and grow from my OWN mistakes and not what everyone else wants me to be.

The Motherhood
First and foremost, the term "mother" evokes strong emotions in everyone. In everyone's life, a mother is unquestionably the most significant human being. The love a mother has for her kid cannot be matched to anything else. Her capacity for forgiving is unrivalled. Any wrongdoing can be forgiven by a mother.

SA News ChannelPublished 11 days ago in FamiliesHello!! It's me. I'm new...
You know... writing a blog is kind of intimidating. Especially when you are new or have never written anything like a blog before. It's hard when you start because for me i'm wondering "what do i even write about?". So, I googled it and basically what I learned is you just write about anything. I'm going to write about myself.

Dear Mom, I know we don't talk much. Your seasonal depression and outlook on life have created a distance between us, although I guess when I look back to a time when it wasn't this way, I can't because we have never been close.
